It's also brought a lot of self-confidence and glamor, as the self-confident struts of show models are always contagious.

"One year ago, they came to me and said, why do not we do something together? We came up with the punk theme, something really new to me."

Victoria's Secret Fashion Show 2017: The most discussed controversy
You can not talk about the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show Shanghai without mentioning what happened to her t - girl and supermodel Gigi Hadid. Actually, Ila Hadid's older sister wanted to travel to China this year, but had to leave the show at the last minute because she (allegedly) was denied a Chinese visa. Although her fans were surely waiting for her return, and she revealed her sadness for failing to come to the show on her social media channels, the Chinese audience was not so enthusiastic about her participation. Already in September, the 22-year-old model was ridiculed on a video about Asian people (posted by her sister Bella) and squinted while holding up a Buddha-shaped biscuit. Once their presence on the show was announced, many Chinese people furiously wrote back on the social channels of VS as well as on Weibo (a kind of Instagram that is extremely popular in Asia) and boycotted their participation.
>Hadid apologized for the video and was pulled out of the show, and no one knows if she'll ever come back.
What is the legacy of this Victoria's Secret Fashion Show?
The 2017 Victoria's Secret Fashion Show showed, as we have seen, many ups and downs, and there are certainly a few things to improve. However, it began a long-awaited conversation about Western beauty standards and cultures, opening the door to more diversity and cultural representation (rather than appropriation) in the fashion industry.
It also proved that Victoria's Secret (as a brand) cares more about her clientele than we thought, and that's a good thing to know for sure.
